Time–frequency representations (TFR) have been intensively employed for analysing vibration signals in gear fault diagnosis. However, in many applications, TFR are simply utilized as a visual aid to detect gear defects. An attractive issue is to utilize the TFR for automatic classification of faults. A key step for this study is to extract discriminative features from TFR as input feature vector for classifiers. This article contributes to this ongoing investigation by applying morphological pattern spectrum (MPS) to characterize the TFR for gear fault diagnosis. The S transform, which combines the separate strengths of the short-time Fourier transform and wavelet transforms, is chosen to perform the time–frequency analysis of vibration signals from gear. Then, the MPS scheme is applied to extract the discriminative features from the TFR. The promise of MPS is illustrated by performing our procedure on vibration signals measured from a gearbox with five operating states. Experiment results demonstrate the MPS to be a satisfactory scheme for characterizing TFRs for an accurate classification of gear faults.


Classification of different analog and digital modulation classes using Time-Frequency Transforms (TFTs) through MST and MFSWT under ideal channel conditions is presented in this paper. It also deals with performance analysis of proposed Modified S- Transform (MST) and Modified Frequency Slice Wavelet Transform (MFSWT) based Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) methods under different channel conditions such as Gaussian and fading channels. The performance of the proposed TFT based AMC methods under AWGN (with SNR values varied from -10 dB to 20 dB) and fading channels is examined through simulation. Moreover, the performance of the proposed TFT based AMC is compared with that of the existing techniques in terms of performance metric namely classification accuracy which is also discussed in this paper.

The accurate classification of power quality disturbance (PQD) signals is of great significance for the establishment of a real-time monitoring system of modern power grids, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power system and ensuring the electricity safety of users. Traditional power quality disturbance signal classification methods are susceptible to noise interference, feature selection, etc. In order to further improve the accuracy of power quality disturbance signal classification methods, this paper proposes a power quality disturbance classification method based on S-transform and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Firstly, S-transform is used to extract disturbance signals to obtain the time-frequency matrix with characteristics of the disturbance signals. As an extension of wavelet transform and Fourier transform, S-transform can avoid the disadvantages of difficult window function selection and fixed window width. At the same time, the feature extracted by S-transform has better noise immunity. Secondly, CNN is used to perform secondary feature extraction on the obtained high-dimensional time-frequency modulus matrix to reduce data dimensions and obtain the main features of the disturbance signal, then the main features extracted are classified by using the SoftMax classifier. Finally, after a series of simulation experiments, the results show that the proposed algorithm can accurately classify single disturbance signals with different signal-to-noise ratios and composite disturbance signals composed of single disturbance signals, and it also has good noise immunity. Compared with other classification methods, the algorithm proposed in this paper has better timeliness and higher accuracy, and it is an efficient and feasible power quality disturbance signal classification method.
